Oscar Versace
The lovely Hilary Swank was one of few actresses who actually kept their word and wore the dress they promised they would for the Oscars - in this case, Versace.
Versace were perhaps the first fashion house to truly realise the ‘free’ exposure they could get by either loaning or giving a dress away for the Oscars - of course, everyone else caught on and now every run up to the Oscars is one big love-fest between designers and female celebrities.
Because there is so much competition for who wears what dress, who carries what purse, who wears which jewels, the Hollywood minxes will often change their minds at literally the 11th hour, causing a great deal of embarrassment for any designer who openly stated so-and-so would be wearing his or her dress.
So again, good for Hilary Swank and good for Versace!
The purse pictured here is the Denim And Croc Large Clutch, made of crocodile leather with gold hardware, silky satin lining and pulls and pockets in some rather unusual places. It’s a very unusual clutch, almost as if it’s aspiring to be something else.
Very glam, charming and not overly feminine either - just like Miss Swank herself, no?
